I have 4 of their albums, it's good stuff.
I like the more psychedelicy stuff to the more New-Wave/Post-Punk stuff, but it's still all good stuff. Skylarking is my favourite thus far.

Brief overview of the others
I've only heard the 1st album once and didn't like it at all.
Go2-not bothered with
Drums and wires-pretty irresistible
Black sea-Worth getting for the most part although a lot of it sounds pretty perfunctory.
English settlement-a poor excuse for a double album as far as double albums go but it's still full of fantastic songs...well not full but most of it is
Mummer is o.k
The big express is ****.
Skylarking-a bit of a critics fav but far from classic all the way through.
Oranges and lemons is brilliant (for the most part)
Nonsuch-Frequently brilliant with some ave. stuff.
Apple venus-not heard
Wasp star-largely ave.
